Hospital Train, 1917
Pictured here are rare interior shots of a hospital train carriage made by Harris and Ewing in 1917. It was used by the Army and Red Cross. The bottom image is of a portable syphilis testing lab on board a train in 1930s. I could only find one undersized picture   ·  ·  · |

Re: Hospital Train, 1917
It is very easy to see how the nurses in those times would have been considered by many to be nothing short of angels on earth. Bless them please Lord Almighty.
